"A notch on/on one's bedpost" = một gạch trên cột giường -> chỉ là một đối tác tình dục, tình một đêm, một người qua đường trong số rất nhiều người khác (ngủ với ai thì gạch 1 gạch lên cái cột đầu giường).

Ví dụ
Of men who wanted nothing more than to claim a notch on a bedpost. Vicki wanted so much more.

She wondered if he would see her as a notch on his bedpost like she had heard the few times she talked about sex with Amanda back when Alex was still alive.

There was not going to be a black queen of England and I didn't want to be just a notch on his bedpost. I kind of valued (coi trọng) myself a little more than that.

She was one of Prince Charles's favourite singers and the girl group performed at his request (biểu diễn theo yêu cầu) at his 30th birthday party in 1978, when he danced with her on stage. She recently said in a TV interview that she exchanged (trao đổi) letters with Charles, but denied rumours (tin đồn) they were romantically (lãng mạn) involved, adding that she 'didn't want to be a notch on his bedpost'.
